It is difficult to think that a better book on the life of this great man will be written. It is long and well researched. The man was a colossus whose life spanned the Boer war and two world wars. In the latter he inspired the nation with his mighty rhetoric suffused with impish humour. He subsisted on cigars and copious drafts of alcohol.
